About book The Paying Guests (2014)

I was unfamiliar with Sarah Waters. . .and now I'm puzzled. This book worked well for me for the first third, or perhaps the first half. . .then I thought maybe I had mistakenly gotten into a Lifetime movie script and it was all downhill from there. I liked Waters writing about post-WWI England, and there were so many excellent reviews - that I'll go download another book to get a better idea of her work. If you read Amazon reviews of this book, I am "FLABOOKWOMAN". Bah. At first I was interested but about a 1/3 of the way through I was bored, despite the encounters at the Isle of Lesbos. Then I chanced upon a reference to the book that mentioned a murder and I felt I needed to see what was up with THAT. It then got immensely tedious, I found myself flicking my screen briskly hoping that something, ANYTHING, would happen. Yawn. I did like the portrayal of urban England after the Great War but that was about it it.

Great read! Story started slow, but builds until you can't put it down!

Horrible book. The hours I wasted on the first 250 pages.
